ARTIST STATEMENT<\/strong>
\nIn 1872 the cyanotype process was patented for commercial use as a means to reproduce technical drawings and architectural designs. The term “Blueprint” soon became synonymous with house plans. This photochemical process first used by artists quickly became an indispensable tool in the industrialization of American housing. In other words, pre-1980, it would be a safe bet to say a cyanotype was at the conception of every home in America. In this historical context, I employ the cyanotype process to explore the philosophical underpinnings of creating a \u201chome.\u201d These images I have submitted for your consideration are from an ongoing series entitled \u201cLeaving the Garden.\u201c This series is an exploration of the relationship my children have with their childhood home. Home, even loosely defined, is where presence and absence are most acutely felt. It is the epicenter of memory and the first fertile ground of myth-making. Family photographs play an especially intriguing role in this process. What is present in the frame becomes the foundations of memory, the nails in drywall upon which we hang the details of the past. The act of photographing becomes a curation of identity, defining the interior history of both people and places.<\/p>\n
